I don’t often pay that much attention to my website stats. But when you notice that you’ve attracted tens of thousands of hits in one day* (a couple more than usual) you wonder why. Did I write something indiscreet, controversial, bad?

None of these things, it seems.

No, what happened is that my other gaff was linked to by a website which goes by the name Tottyland. I’ll give you the link, but it does what it says on the tin, so don’tclick here if easily offended. (And absolutely don’t click on it if you’re my parents.)

One positive thing – setting to one side my embarrassed-but-flattered ego – is their highlighting of the Lib Dems’ ‘Help Stop Homophobic Bullying’ campaign. If you’ve not yet added your name to the petition, you can do so here, now.

* hits, of course, not unique visitors (I know the distinction is being hotly debated).
